He's only guaranteed $28M.
He's going to get paid much, much more than that.
People are trying to justify his contract by saying we'd only be out $28M, when that's far from the case.
Hell, for sake of conversation, say we did cut his ass after the 2010 season.
He'll earn the entire $28M, plus his base salary for 2009 and 2010, plus any roster bonuses that may have been part of the deal.

how do guarantees work? thats the signing bonus and the yearly salary that he's guaranteed no matter what right? so some if not all of that 28 million will be paid in the first three years if you believe what was speculated at the time of the signing.
Again you should try to be objective here.
